SAI International School organised an exciting and enriching field trip to the renowned Parle Biscuit Factory, offering the young learners of Class III a fascinating glimpse into the world of food production. For children who love munching on their favourite biscuits, this visit was a delightful opportunity to discover how these crunchy treats come to life. The moment the students stepped into the factory premises, they were greeted by the warm, comforting aroma of freshly baked biscuits that instantly sparked their enthusiasm. Their eyes lit up with curiosity as they prepared to explore the journey of a biscuit, from the simplest ingredients to the final crispy product they enjoy every day. The factory staff guided the children with great warmth and patience, explaining each step of the biscuit-making process. Students watched in awe as ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, and flavouring agents were blended in huge mixing machines. They also learned about the use of advanced technology that ensures hygiene, uniformity, and quality in every batch produced.
One of the highlights of the visit was an engaging video presentation on the history of Parle. The children were fascinated to learn how a small brand grew into one of India’s most iconic names in the biscuit industry. The video gave them a deeper appreciation of the hard work, innovation, and dedication behind their favourite treats. The trip ended with an interactive session where students shared their observations and asked thoughtful questions. To make the day even sweeter, each child received a special goodies packet, a delightful surprise that brought big smiles to their faces.
With hearts full of joy and minds enriched with new knowledge, the students returned to school carrying memories they will cherish for a long time. The visit not only strengthened their understanding of food production but also encouraged experiential learning beyond the classroom.
